Slide 9 What are Property Tax Caps?

• Also called “Circuit Breakers”.• Property taxes are capped at 1% (homestead), 2%

(non-homestead residential), and 3% (commercial) of their assessed value.

• Typically, if a taxpayer is about to be billed higher than their capped liability, the bill is reduced to the cap.

• As a result, the county collects less property taxes and the loss of collections is passed onto the units.

Slide 10 What are Property Tax Caps?

• In the past, unfunded budgets may have been certified because property tax cap losses weren’t accounted for. This occurred because the certified levy was higher than what would actually be received.

• Senate Enrolled Act 321-2016 changed statute to require property tax caps to be accounted for in the budgeting process.

Slide 11 What are Property Tax Caps?

• To account for the property tax caps, taxing units now include the estimated cap impact by fund in their budgets.

• This results in a more accurate “Operating Balance” (Line 11) on the Form 4B.

• Essentially, an Operating Balance is the estimated cash balance once the budget year has ended.

• This balance is often used by a unit to operate during the first 6 months after the budget year (2019 in this case), until the June settlement is distributed.

• If this amount is ever negative, a budget reduction is likely.

Slide 12 Property Tax Cap Summary

• It’s the portion of the certified property tax levy that the unit may not receive due to property tax caps.

• The budgets on the more “internal” budget forms (Forms 1, 4A, and 4B) will contain estimates of property tax cap credits.

• The budgets on the more “public” budget forms (Form 3: Notice to Taxpayers and Form 4: Adoption Resolution) will be the actual budget you anticipate spending and does not include the property tax cap estimate.

• You will manually enter the property tax cap in a designated portion of Form 1 and from there, Gateway will help make sure the correct amounts are pulled into the rest of the forms.

• If you’re confused, don’t worry. We’ll explain more later!

Slide 32 Property Tax Cap Questions

• My budgets don’t match, how can I fix this? If the budgets on Forms 3 and 4 are lower than

Forms 1, 4A, and 4B, by the amount of property tax caps entered, it’s working correctly!

• Can I use my own estimates? Yes, but be careful.

• Will this always be the process? Tentatively, no. The Department intends to redo

the Form 4B (Fund Report/16-Line Statement) to account for this change.
